Creating Panoramic Photos

When I was in Chicago recently I took a few panoramic shots - specifically of the White Sox and Willow Creek Church. Haven't got around to stitching them together because the panoramic software that comes with my camera doesn't run under Linux.

Recently Chris wrote up how he did it, but I still didn't get around to it.

Today I just found this article, which looks pretty good as well. I'm running out of excuses :-)

ALP make noises on the AUSFTA

Senator Kate Lundy of the ALP released this statement to placate the angry Australian open-source industry.

A good start, but who knows what this means in practice. Will the ALP provide surety for OSS over software patents? Will circumvention for the purposes of fair use be legislated? Is there wiggle room in the AUSFTA to allow this? Will they have the intestinal fortitude to enact legislation that better balances the rights of end users and big multinational companies? Does actively monitor mean something will happen? Or is it political speak for do nothing?
